This can cause a range of symptoms depending on the severity and location of the slip or bulge. Here are some key facts about disc slips and bulges in the cervical and lumbar spine:
The symptoms of a disc slip or bulge can vary depending on the location of the affected disc and the extent of the compression on the surrounding nerves or spinal cord. Common symptoms include neck or back pain, numbness or tingling in the arms or legs, weakness in the arms or legs, and difficulty with coordination or balance.
